Guest guest Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 It is really, really easy to make your own vanilla extract. Take a couple of vanilla beans, chop, and put in a pint jar. Pour in your choice of alcohol – light rum, potato vodka, tequila,.etc. Place on the window sill and shake ever day or so until the alcohol changes color, open and sniff. If strong enough, strain (or not) and use. You can dry the bits of vanilla and put them in some sugar to make vanilla sugar.

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 Thanks for the tip on making vanilla extract. I might have to try that. How long does the homemade extract last? If you use something such as tequila, does the distinct taste remain?
